I am planning to make a gold alloy using Antimony as the alloying element.

When I take this alloy to refining, where alloy will be dissolved in Aqua regia solution (HNO3+ 3 HCl). This solution with Gold in it is then will be treated with NaHSO3 (Sodium bi sulphite) to precipitate the Gold in powder form.

I want to know whether Antimony (Sb) also will gets precipitates along with Gold?
